Phaser Modes and Sound Shaping

FunkWolf offers three modes. OSC mode is an LFO-driven phaser with triangle modulation that can run freely or sync to your DAW tempo for rhythmic sweeps. ENV mode uses an envelope follower, so the phasing reacts to how hard you play. Vowel mode morphs through A, E, I, O and U positions for talking filter effects.

The Old and New phaser styles give you two distinct characters. Old is a bright vintage sweep covering 300 Hz to 6 kHz, while New is a warmer modern phasing covering 80 Hz to 2.2 kHz.

Character, Stereo Width and Output Tools

The Dirt Engine adds compression, bit-crushing, decimation and soft saturation for grit. Glaze Stereo Widener moves the LFO independently across the left and right channels to create wide phaser textures. Feedback and an HPF let you control resonance while keeping the low end tight.

An output compressor with optical-style behavior is included for the final stage. The interface is resizable and includes a real-time visualizer, and MIDI Learn is supported for mapping controls.
